Слайд 24*
Taking an Essay Exam
For successful in-class essays:
Take into consideration your purpose,

audience and information
when you develop a thesis with support
when you prove your statements with evidence
when you guide your readers with transitions, etc.

Слайд 25*
PREPARING FOR THE EXAM: Preparation Tips
Study connections between ideas
when you’re studying,

try to think about how the information fits together.

Слайд 26*
PREPARING FOR THE EXAM: Preparation Tips
Prepare practice questions
Try to prepare for

questions that are likely to be asked
it’s better to write out the answers.
That way, you will know where you need to study more.

Слайд 27*
PREPARING FOR THE EXAM: Preparation Tips
Always take notes throughout the semester
Ask

the instructor exactly what they are expecting in the essay.
Different instructors have different criteria.
For long essays, write miniature outlines. Create main points that you can memorize. Therefore, if the question arises on the test, you will have more confidence and clarity in your answer.

Слайд 28*
PREPARING FOR THE EXAM: Preparation Tips
if the professor stresses certain information,

there is a good chance it will be on exam
listen carefully,
turn the repeated information into a question,
practice writing an answer under timed conditions
Talk with other students on how they write essay questions
Ask other students for possible questions they think will be asked.

Слайд 29*
PREPARING FOR THE EXAM: Preparation Tips
Analyze your essay questions from the

past to see how you can improve upon the instructor’s comments.

Слайд 30*
TAKING THE EXAM
While you’re taking the exam, remember that it’s not

simply what you say or how much you say, but HOW you say it that’s important.
You want to show your instructor that you have mastered the material

Слайд 31*
Plan your time
Take a few minutes to plan your time.
Determine

how many minutes you can devote to each answer.

Слайд 32*
Plan your time
You will want to devote most of your time

to the questions that are worth the most points, perhaps answering those questions first.
On the other hand, you might want to answer first the questions that you are best prepared for.

Слайд 33*
Plan your time
If you are given the entire exam at once

and can determine your approach on your own, read the entire exam before you get started

how many points each part earns you,
find hints for how long your answers should be

Слайд 34*
Plan your time
As you read, make tentative choices of the questions

you will answer (if you have a choice).
Don't just answer the first essay question you encounter. Instead, read through all of the options. Jot down really brief ideas for each question before deciding.

Слайд 35*
Plan your time
Remember that the easiest-looking question is not always as

easy as it looks.
Focus your attention on questions for which you can explain your answer most thoroughly, rather than settle on questions where you know the answer but can't say why.

Слайд 36*
Read the questions thoroughly
Take a few minutes before writing your

essay to read the question carefully in order to determine exactly what you are being asked to do
Most essay exam questions, or “prompts,” are carefully worded and contain specific instructions about WHAT you are to write about as well as HOW you should organize your answer.

Слайд 37*
Read the questions thoroughly
Read the questions carefully, and mark and

circle the key words, such as the action verbs and the subject. If you do not understand the structure of the questions, ask the professor for clarification
Choose a key word from the topic in order to introduce your essay.

Слайд 38*
If you see one of these terms, try to organize your

essay to respond to the question or questions indicated:

classify: Into what general category/categories does this idea belong? compare: What are the similarities among these ideas? What are the differences? contrast: What are the differences between these ideas? critique: What are the strengths and weaknesses of this idea? define: What does this word or phrase mean? describe: What are the important characteristics or features of this idea? evaluate: What are the arguments for and against this idea? Which arguments are stronger?
Assess: What are the arguments for and against this idea? identify: What is this idea? What is its name? interpret: What does this idea mean? Why is it important? justify: Why is this correct? Why is this true? outline: What are the main points and essential details? summarize: Briefly, what are the important ideas? trace: What is the sequence of ideas or order of events?

Слайд 39*
Analyze the questions
Decide what you are being asked to do.
Try

looking closely at what the question is directing you to do, and try to understand the sort of writing that will be required.

Слайд 40*
Analyze the questions
Focus on what you do know about the question,

not on what you don't.
Look at the active verbs in the assignment—they tell you what you should be doing.

Слайд 41*
Plan your answer
Jot down the main points you intend to make

as you think through your answer.
Then, you can use your list to help you stick to the topic.
In an exam situation, it’s easy to forget points if you don’t write them down.

Слайд 42*
Structure Your Essay:
For any type of essay, always take a

minute or two to form a very broad but clear outline.
List the main topics and points you would like to elaborate on.
Organization always adds confidence in your writing and is the key to writing a well-written essay answer.

Слайд 43*
Structure Your Essay:
Always state your thesis in the last sentence

of your first paragraph.
Continue to support your thesis throughout the essay by providing examples and description.
Avoid restating it without support.

Слайд 44*
Structure Your Essay:
When drafting your essay, do not worry about

spelling and grammatical mechanics.
If you have time and use a pencil, you can correct the problems once the information has been written. At that time, revise and proofread.

Слайд 45*
Structure Your Essay:
Avoid repetitiveness in the essay.
Check that the information

that you have applied is understandable, readable, and to the point.
Be direct and remember that the instructor wants to see that you understand the content.
The instructor’s intention is not to see how many pages you can write in a certain amount of time.

Слайд 46*
Structure Your Essay:
Structure your paragraphs clearly. Use headings, numbering, and

other technical formats to emphasize your main points.
Use examples, facts, and explanations to support your ideas.

Слайд 47*
Structure Your Essay:
If the essay is not very clear, then

you might want to see if you can add short sentences and or even a paragraph that elaborates and sums up what you have applied.
Look for confusing or murky sentences, words, and ideas that can be eliminated.

Слайд 48*
Write out your essay, using good writing techniques
As was said earlier,

essay exams are like other essays, so use the same good writing strategies you use for other kinds of writing.
Keep in mind that your purpose is to persuade your reader—the examiner—that you know the material.

Слайд 49*
CORRECT ESSAY STRUCTURE
Essay Components

Слайд 50*
The Thesis Statement / Introduction Paragraph
This is the most important part

of any well-written essay. Usually limited to one or two sentences, the thesis statement is the main idea, or topic, of your essay.
An essay without a strong and clearly defined thesis statement is like a ship without a captain. The essay will drift aimlessly without a clear direction.

Слайд 51*

The thesis statement is the leader of your essay, because every

other word written afterward is there to support it.
Before you ever begin writing you must come up with a solid thesis statement. It is usually placed early in the text, in the first paragraph.
This first paragraph is called the introduction paragraph, because it introduces the topic of your essay.

Слайд 52*
Supporting Paragraphs:
Everything written after the thesis statement is there to support

it. The ideas you choose to support your thesis statement need to be separated into paragraphs.
Each paragraph will develop one, and only one, supporting idea or point.
These ideas need to be supported within the paragraph, not just stated. Back up your ideas with additional information about them.
Also, be sure to make smooth transitions between each of your supporting paragraphs, don’t just jump from one idea to the other.


Слайд 53*
First paragraph
normally, the first paragraph of the essay body contains the

strongest argument of the whole work, the brightest illustration to prove the author’s point or an example that is rather significant.
The topic of the paragraph must be mentioned in the topic sentence in one of the first sentences of the paragraph.
A “transitional hook” for the next paragraph is required

Слайд 54*
Second paragraph
The second paragraph contains correspondingly the second strongest argument

of the essay.
The beginning of the second paragraph must be tied with the end of the first one with a “reverse hook”. The topic sentence is revealed din the begging of the paragraph.

Слайд 55*
Third paragraph
The third paragraph opens the weakest argument to the

reader. The topic sentence is to be related or reflect the thesis statement of the essay.
The major point of the essay starts to be revealed and through a “transitional hook” continues in the concluding paragraph

Слайд 56*
Hooks
Introductory hook – At the start of the introduction, use a

catchy sentence to provoke the reader to keep on reading.
Transitional hook – A alluring hook should also end the introduction with a promise of better things to come in the next paragraph. The reader must want to know what is next. The transitional hook should always appear on the last sentence of all paragraph succeeding paragraphs.

Слайд 57*

Reverse hook – this is ideally placed on the first two

sentences of the first paragraph of the body, to relate the discussion to the transitional hook of the introductory paragraph.
Hooks can be compared to torch lights. They show the reader the way from beginning to end. Without these hooks, reading the article is like reading disjointed snippets of a book.

Слайд 58*
Conclusion / Summary Paragraph
This is the last paragraph in your essay.
Here

you will summarize the main points and ideas and let the reader know the essay has come to an end.

Слайд 59*
Conclusion / Summary Paragraph
Do not repeat your thesis statement word for

word, however.
Restate your thesis in a new manner, with different words.
If needed, provide an opinion or suggestion about the subject of your writing.

Слайд 60*
Essay Types
The ability to write effectively is one of the critical

skills
Typically this is attained via practice: writing skills develop as the result of assigning students dozens, if not hundreds of essays on different topics, with every essay serving its own purpose.

Слайд 61*
The Definition Essay
The main function of the definition essay is to

explain, or to acquaint your reader with something; it can be used to describe, explain or present some information.
In order to write an expository essay, preparation and background research will be required. This will arm you with facts and information that will be subsequently conveyed to your reader.
No matter the size, an essay should at all times include an introduction and a conclusion – the body length may vary.

Слайд 62*
The Persuasive Essay
If you have to persuade your reader about something,

your essay becomes a persuasive one.
With this type of writing you will need not only to prove your point, but will also have to persuade your opposition that your viewpoint is logical and well founded, and thus – better.
In this case, you are no longer merely showing what you know; you are convincing the reader that you are correct in your viewpoint.

Слайд 63*
The Argumentative Essay
The art of argumentation is not an easy skill

to acquire.
Many people might think that if one simply has an opinion, one can argue it effectively, and these folks are always surprised when others don't agree with them because their logic seems so correct.
Additionally, writers of argumentation often forget that their primary purpose in an argument is to "win" it – to sway the reader to accept their point of view. 

Слайд 64*
The Cause and Effect Essay
The cause and effect essay includes some

elements of writing that might be considered more professional than those a descriptive or narrative essay might include.
It is very important, for instance, that your tone be reasonable, and that your presentation be factual and believable.
Sources are often required in a cause/effect paper, and your choice of these sources is important as they reflect on the validity of your paper.
Additionally, the first-person point of view does not work; you should sound objective and impartial

Слайд 65*
The Comparison and Contrast Essays
The main purpose and function of compare

and contrast essays is obvious – to find similarities and dissimilarities between two or more objects or things.
This kind of writing requires the writer to be an observer; in most cases it doesn’t require scholarly research or any specific referencing.
Such essays are mostly subjective in nature, and writers are required to come up with differences or similarities they are able to point out and analyze.
There are different compare and contrast patterns for these essays, yet the overall essay structure remains invariable: there should be an introduction, a few body paragraphs and a conclusion.
